From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 971 The Crown Princess Is Pregnant

In those days when the capital was in chaos, King Ping and King Huai of Chu killed many officials, and the aristocratic families who had feuds with the two of them and did not support them were also wiped out overnight and suffered hardships. There are only a handful of useful talents.

In the past two years, although he followed his daughter's advice, he took the imperial examination every year and recruited talents, but it took time, and it took him nearly a year and a half to make the country run normally. Not many people are available.

Mei Jinze originally wanted to be lazy for two days, and she had discussed it with her younger sister, Mei Xin, and she agreed. Now that something like this happened, it is impossible to rest.

Not only is it impossible to be busier than before, especially now that his father has been poisoned, time is running out, and the burden on his shoulders is even heavier.

Annoyed in his heart, he wished to smash those assassins who appeared suddenly into pieces. He said with a gloomy face: "There is news from outside the palace before a cup of tea that Xin'er has gone to Gyeonggi Daying, I think she will replace her." Feng Wuzheng."

The Gyeonggi Guards belong to the Ministry of War, Mei Xin used to be the Secretary of the Ministry of War, and she is very familiar with the system of the Ministry of War, and she is a prince with the post of supporting the country, so it is only a matter of one word to remove Feng Wuzheng.

With so many assassins flooding into the capital, the commander-in-chief of the Gyeonggi Guards is responsible for negligence of duty. Mei Zhannan also had this intention, and he only listened to his order: "Come here, pass on my word of mouth, and immediately remove Feng Wuzheng from the position of the Commander-in-Chief of the Gyeonggi Guards. In view of the aftermath, the sixteen guards of Gyeonggi will be temporarily handed over to Princess Zhen Guozhang."

Eunuch Qian took the order and immediately sent Deshun'er out of the palace to deliver the order.

Mei Jinze thinks this is very good, and it is not difficult to govern a small Gyeonggi Guard with her younger sister's ability to lead troops in battle. I believe she will do well as always: "Father, you said that the people and subjects have just experienced the flames of war. It’s not appropriate to go to war anymore, the chaos has already reached the capital, if you don’t deal with it ruthlessly, I’m afraid you won’t be the only one who gets hurt next time.”

The cunning rabbit has three caves, but the old fox of King Huai of Chu raised eighteen substitutes, and after being killed by them one after another, he still couldn't find the real person, and he was like a loach from the beginning to the end, a poisonous snake, not slippery, just found some The trace disappeared, like a mud cow entering the sea without a trace.

For more than three years, Mei Zhannan wanted to kill him in his dreams, especially after hearing about his daughter's experience in the previous life, he hated him even more: "I didn't punish them before, and I didn't kill them very much, because I thought there were many of them. Everyone is really helpless, forced to do nothing, now three years have passed, and the capital has returned to its former prosperity, so it’s good to move around."

Taking a deep breath, he took the medicine bowl from Doctor An, thought for a while, and then said: "Dad is old, and you have grown up too, and you are now a father. Everything in the hall is up to you. Although this assassination is fierce, it may not be an opportunity. Take this opportunity to clean up the court and the public, and pull out the nails buried in the capital one by one, so as to establish your power for your future enthronement."

His life is not long and he has to pave the way for his son, and the new emperor has to have political achievements when he ascends the throne. Although he has done well in the past two years, he is still a little worse than his daughter's reputation.

Of course, this is not his problem, but that there are too few women in this world who don't let their men down, and his daughter is indeed a hero among women, a legend among women.Therefore, when it comes to the Mei family, everyone in the world knows the daughters of the Mei family, and everyone knows the young general Mei Xinmei.

Speaking of his enthronement, he couldn't help but think of his body, and remembering what Dr. An said to him outside the door just now, Mei Jinze felt extremely sad, and felt like a needle in his heart: "How can you be old before you are 50 years old, you are in your prime. Father, the Crown Princess is pregnant, it has been two months, Qi Zheng went to ask me for a Ping An pulse, and she showed me that there is a high chance of a son, and you are going to have a grandson."

It was obviously a great joy, but he was about to burst into tears. After ten months, his father must be able to see it.

Mei Zhannan was overjoyed, and immediately smiled and said: "Okay, okay, the Crown Princess has made meritorious deeds and should be rewarded!"

"What's the reward? Be careful of the wound." While speaking, Wen Ruyan went back and forth, holding a tray in her hand with an anxious expression on her face, seeing that the wound on his arm was not bleeding, she breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Still Okay, okay, otherwise you have to take the medicine apart again, you are injured, be careful, don't move this arm again."

In a moment of excitement, Mei Zhannan quickly sat down and said, "My daughter-in-law is pregnant, so hurry up and pick up some supplements and send them over tomorrow morning, pick out some good fabrics, and make more clothes for the child. And Xiaobao, Xiaobao Don't forget about Bao, choose more brightly colored fabrics to make skirts for Xiaobao, this little girl has to wear skirts since she was a child, or she will be like her aunt who won't wear skirts for more than ten years."

I still remember that when my daughter was eight years old, she just entered the military camp and dressed like a tomboy. People thought he had two sons and no daughter.

Seeing that he was very happy, Wen Ruyan was also very happy in her heart, and while opening the lid of the noodle bowl, she gave him a small bowl of noodles and said, "Okay, okay, I'll go to the storeroom to pick out Xiaobao's summer clothes in a while. I have already finished it, made five or six skirts, and I will send them over tomorrow morning."

She reached for the noodle bowl and wanted to eat it herself, but she didn't think it was for him at all. She passed it to her son and said, "I know you specially cooked two extra bowls here, let's eat some with your father."

After a messy toss all night, and I haven't slept yet, it's dawn now, I should be hungry.

Standing up and taking it with both hands, Mei Jinze said very respectfully: "Thank you, Queen Mother!"

Smiling to indicate no need, Wen Ruyan filled another bowl and said to Mei Zhannan, "You can't move your arms, let me feed you."

Mei Zhannan didn't want to, it wasn't that he didn't want to, but he was a little embarrassed in front of his son. Besides, he had never been fed by anyone other than his children when he grew up.

Mei Jinze was taken aback, before she sat down, she straightened her legs and said, "I want to eat the hot sauce from my mother's harem, I'll go to the small kitchen to get it."

After speaking, he took the noodles and left.

Mei Zhannan was embarrassed, but Wen Ruyan suddenly smiled, picked up the chopsticks to test the temperature, and then brought it to his mouth and said: "This kid looks rough, but he is careful. I'm afraid you will be embarrassed, so I find an excuse slipped away."

Aside from his appearance, his son is more like him than his daughter. Of course, his temper is a little more irritable, but his temperament is the same.

Of course, his son knows better than anyone else. Mei Zhannan ate the noodles on the chopsticks and said, "It's messy and unsafe outside, so don't go to the East Palace tomorrow. You should pay more attention to your son's choice of concubine. Pick two girls who are polite and sensible. I used to think that my daughter-in-law is also very knowledgeable and sensible, she is a very nice girl, how has this changed since the birth of Xiaobao?"
